FIRST EDITION BEAUTIFULLY PRESERVED OF THIS VERY EARLY BATMAN COMIC FROM AUGUST-SEPTEMBER, 1946. Truly Rare in this condition. ' Batman is one of the comic book characters with the largest history in comic books. He was created in 1939, during the so-called Golden Age of comics and his books have remained in publication to the present date without interruption. The Golden Age of comics was defined by the creation of several characters and elements that marked the super-hero comic book genre. This is no different for Batman, as the Golden Age was the time period in which his main concept and supporting cast were created and developed. The original concept of Batman was developed by writer/artist Bob Kane. Inspired by Sherlock Holmes, Zorro, a Leonardo da Vinci sketch of a bat-winged flying machine, and his own imagination, Kane sketched an early version of the character. Taking his idea to writer Bill Finger, they further developed the concept. Finger himself said on more than one occasion that Kane did indeed create a version of the character before Finger got involved with the project. Kane was inspired by the flying machine of Leonardo Da Vinci, a movie he had seen called The Bat and of course, Bela Lugosi's 1931 film Dracula which featured a "man-bat" in its opening credits. However, Finger did suggest a different costume direction for "The Bat-Man." Synopsis for "The Penguin's Nest": The Penguin has started his own business and is running a popular cafe in Gotham City. Bruce Wayne goes to the place to investigate and he meets Commissioner Gordon, who was also suspicious of Penguin's new business. When Penguin realizes that the police commissioner is in his place, he tries to steal a purse and he is immediately captured. Bruce is even more suspicious and after a quick change, he transforms into Batman and prevents Penguin from being arrested since that seems to be part of his plan. A few days later, Batman asks Gordon that the Penguin remains free despite his crimes and in the meantime he investigates the reason why Penguin wants to be locked up. After a long investigation, Batman realizes that Penguin has been gathering signatures from wealthy people in his new cafe and he wants to be arrested to meet the greatest forger in the country while in prison. Batman prepares a trap for the Penguin and when the criminal finally gets what he wants, his crime plan is revealed and he is forced to escape using one of his trick umbrellas. However, Batman manages to capture him using a regular umbrella and Penguin is send to prison for good. Synopsis for "Stand-In For Danger!": A Hollywood stunt-man loses his memory and thinks of himself as a high profile criminal. Using his athletic skills, he performs all sorts of crimes until he is stopped by Batman and Robin. In the end, the man recovers his memory and he continues working as a stunt-man in the movies. Synopsis for "Elusive London Eddie!": Alfred learns of an English criminal that has arrived to Gotham City and he starts looking for the suspect. When he finally thinks he has found him, Alfred asks the help of another man to capture the thug, not knowing that the man he asked for help is the actual criminal. With a little accidental luck, Alfred ends up capturing the wanted criminal and solving another case entirely by chance, as he always does. Synopsis for "Sir Batman At King Arthur's Court!": Batman and Robin are hypnotized once again by Professor Carter Nichols and their consciousness are sent back to the 7th Century, during the times of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. Once there, the Dynamic Duo help solve a conspiracy against the wizard Merlin, who has been framed as a traitor.
